Window.opener

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jan 16.2006

If I..
– open a popup window
– In the popup window submit a form to itself
– then with javascript use parentWin = window.opener;

Will parentWin be the parent window even tho I’ve already reloaded the child ?

If it’s not, is there anyway to get that parentWin handle ?

@felgallJan 16.2006 — It should be the window that opened it even though the content has been reloaded. Should work as long as you are still within the same domain.

Success!
